Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#29987: guix: build with glibc 2.31
b5fc6d46a3854c18f6e8dfc89540d24ef778caa2 guix: use glibc 2.31 (fanquake) Pull request description: Set minimum required glibc to 2.31. The glibc 2.31 branch is still maintained: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/release/2.31/master. Remove the stack-protector check from test-security-check, as the test no-longer fails, and given the control we have of the end, the actual security-check test seems sufficient (this might also be applied to some of the other checks). Drops runtime support for Ubuntu Bionic 18.04 and RHEL-8 from the release binaries.
